| Cold and Cape Ann and the doves are trying to keep warm. Love this photo as the dove (some people call them pigeons) but I prefer Mourning Dove and love their cooing. This dove seemed to be looking directly at me. Sharing with Eileen's Saturday Critters |

Such a beautiful series of photos...Love the angel drawings and the jetty!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! We are having some unusually cold weather here in north Florida this week. Not as cold as you are though!
ReplyDeleteCold but pretty - it reminds me of the North Shore on Long Island where I lived many years ago. Good luck with your storm, I wish we'd get at least one good snow this winter!
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteYes, it looks chilly! That sunset is all too familiar on this side of the pond... low and silvery; tho' for the past three days, haven't seen the hills, never mind the sun, so thick the fog! It's always a joy to see it from your side... Happy week to you! YAM xx
what glorious photos-you have such a good eye Carol! Lovely angels. i was wondering what they were calling for up your way. here we are looking at anything from 12" to over 24-yikes!! yes, what happened to our warmer days with the promise of Spring? Stay warm, and I'm sure you'll have Zoe all bundled up too:)
ReplyDeleteStay warm. We are a little seasonally cool here but it looks like you are going to have a blizzard.
ReplyDeleteI love doves myself. The cooing is wonderful.
Interesting set of images.
ReplyDeleteWonderful scenes as always Carol. I especially liked the tree in monochrome today. AND the sky and dove.
ReplyDeleteOf course it goes without saying the sweet fur baby and your sketches are eye catching. :o)
Stunning sceneries! And the dove is very cute :-) We have Mourning Doves around here, too.
ReplyDeleteI imagine your area is covered with snow now. Stay warm and safe!
I feel like that Mourning Dove looks...cold. Indeed where did our normally warmer month of March go?? February seemed to have sucked all the warm air from March. I hope you have power and have no ill affects from the blizzard. Hang on to your hat.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots, especially that chilly sunset.
ReplyDeleteThe puffed up dove gives a good sense of the cold! Hopefully, the warmth of spring will wrap winter in a big hug sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteI had a fund conversation with my granddaughter. She saw a mourning dove in the afternoon and suggested it should be an afternoon dove!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, do you ever go exploring around the rocks?
ReplyDeleteFrom the photos your weather does look so much better than last week Carol. I think it is truly warming up so I hope you don't get that snow storm that is taking place down in New York It was on Sky news.
ReplyDeleteLove your photos...we've had an Arctic style winter this year on the west coast (Vancouver Canada) and we're all anxious for spring to make an appearance. We see crocuses sprouting but then we get a dump of snow! SNOW???? In MARCH??? Hurry up springtime!

ReplyDeleteLovely photo's and a lovely choice for j too

Pictures with water I like the most. Even cold water :)
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at your lovely photos and thinking how quickly the snow had gone, happy days for you, and then of course the killer line about expected foot of snow. Yikes. Wishing you a warmer week to come.
ReplyDeleteHi! I like your sun setting photo and Haiku photo. Your Haiku is very interesting. The photo of snowflakes is very fascinating Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou are a champion to keep up your spirits during the cloudy grey days and the approaching winter storms in March. YEA! You are the BEST! I liked the sunset image very much.
ReplyDeleteHello Carol, it does look frigid in Cape Ann but you took such beautiful shots of the ocean and trees and birds and warmed my heart with your lovely haiku!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes!
Beautiful shots.

When that cold-looking sun goes down, it will be time to snuggle up close to the fire!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos of ocean and leafless trees. That is a cute dove.
ReplyDeleteSweet angels! And I love the image of the sun going down.
ReplyDeleteWinter is at time reluctant to let go of its grip, but never fear, spring will come as surely as the sun will rise tomorrow morning. Have a happy weekend, Carol.
ReplyDeleteLove the rocky beach shot most
ReplyDeleteLove seeing all the scenes in one week! I am glad the store proved to be much milder than they had expected.
ReplyDeleteGreat sketches and photos. :)
ReplyDeleteSweet angel wip for PPF!
ReplyDeleteYour angel warms me, and I love the mourning dove.
ReplyDeleteHappy St Patrick's Day to you, Carol. Thank you for your visit and I, too, love your angels!!! Have a grand day!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you are thrilled to have rising temperatures. Thanks for your haiku!
ReplyDeleteYour angels are precious, your photos are gorgeous and I especially love that beautiful dove~
ReplyDeleteHappy PPF!!!
What lovely photographs, I especially love the dove. Your angel is full of charm as is your haiku.
ReplyDeleteLoved the puffed up dove, and seeing ground without snow. Perhaps one day, spring will finally come. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteSome pretty shots! I like the opening shot of the rocky beach, and the Skywatch Friday sky. Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteYes. The fluffy mourning dove is wonderful and the angels so sweet.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so beautiful!!! I do love the Dove too and your sketches are so sweet ♥
ReplyDeleteyou're an angel each week
ReplyDeleteROG, ABCW
Love your photos they capture the essence of your days! Adorable angel! I especially love your shadow photo!
ReplyDeleteHugs Giggles
A little angel to melt the one foot snow.
ReplyDeleteThose stones on the beach, not nice to walk on.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, Oh yes, it does look cold in your photos. It has even been cold here in Georgia for the last week. I love watching and listening to the mourning doves. They are so soothing to hear outside my window. I wish you a very nice weekend. xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh such beauty - I loved them all.
ReplyDeleteSweet! BTW we are living Marin. Nice to have room to breathe and wonderful cool weather. Happy Spring to YOU <3
ReplyDeleteI hope your Spring arrived Carol. The remains of Stella arrived here with three days of rain. Bah - no good. We need sunsshine too. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful serie of photos !! I love your Angel !!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend !
I do like that tree in black and white. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
Very nice pictures and designs, I love the little dove, looking like a balloon, lol !
ReplyDeleteHello, I always enjoy seeing your beautiful views of Cape Ann. The second photo is one of my favorites. Your art sketches are lovely, beautiful angels. Love the sweet dove. Great collection of photos. Thank you so much for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy day and new week ahead!
ReplyDeleteCute angel of Light for SS!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol-
ReplyDeleteSuperb post with birds, sketches.
The B&W photo of the tree is truly beautiful.
Thank you for visiting me.
Have a Happy Day!
Peace :)
It looks like you escaped the worst of the snow, but lovely winter shots nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet angel sketches! Happy Spring. :D
ReplyDeleteI can't tell if the tide is coming in or out or whether I'm coming or going. Don't run over that tree!
ReplyDeleteFun photos!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving your series of angels, Carol. Awww so sweet and each have that feeling of connecting with the previous illustration. Well done. :)
ReplyDeleteHello, That dove!!! Are they pigeons? I also call them Mourning Doves. They mate for life. One year a pair built a nest right outside my kitchen door. I don't think they knew how much traffic there would be. Unfortunately, they did not return the following year.
ReplyDelete~~ Irene
Go away winter! I like 'jetty' picture, because it gives warmth to my heart :) ok, ok, winter tree picture is beautiful too.
ReplyDeleteYou need to finish that one angel to keep you warm. (I know I'm reading this late -- I hope you and the pup and the angels all stayed cozy through the storm.) I do love your scenery -- but it does look too cold for March.
ReplyDeletespring is a fickle lover this year my friend! stay warm and know the dreams of flowers become more real with every passing day! xo
